It was a great season overall, despite some early hiccups with hard forks and post rewards, but there was steady support and participation throughout. Thank you to everyone who was part of this and a huge thanks to 
I hope everyone enjoyed the weekly, monthly, and season contest formats. If you have any comments, critiques or suggestions on how this can be improved, feel free to let me know. I wanted to run these contests for you – the Steemit community – so if there’s any way to improve it, I want to hear about it!
Now...without any further delay, here are the winners of the final three Steemit Scramble contests that concluded with the Presidents Cup.

The 2x multiplier was the total number of points by the International Team, which was 11. The closest contestant guess came from 
The September optional special bonus winner for the Presidents Cup was Hideki Matsuyama. All contestants who selected Hideki Matsuyama received a 50% bonus for their final September score. All contestants who selected Brooks Koepka lost 25% of their final September score. These optional weekly bonuses may have accumulated or canceled each other out during September.
The total pot for the weekly contest was 24 SBD. The 1st place contestant received 12 SBD and the four contestants finishing in a 2nd place tie each received 3 SBD.
These are the final results for the September contest, with all bonuses applied (total bonus in parentheses).

We had a total of 170 contestants throughout the season, most of them participating in multiple contests. Congratulations to all of the winners since the contests began in February! Thank you to everyone who upvoted, resteemed, and shared these contests outside of Steemit!
One of the goals of these contests was to encourage and entice people to join and to be active within the sports community. I can’t say how many people joined because of the Steemit Scramble,but I know a lot of users have thanked me for creating and running the Scramble throughout the duration of the season. So even if we weren’t able to reach a lot of people outside of this platform, there was at least an opportunity to engage in sports-related contests for the Steemit community and there was another chance for non-bloggers to engage and earn on Steemit.
I hope you have all enjoyed the season and are happy with the results. If you have any feedback to offer, please do so!
